Near Crawford's Crossing near Baraboo  4:10 P.M.

Dec. 10, 1901
Tonight after school I went out to the Devil's Lake near Crawford's Crossing.  
[[marginalia]] note [[/marginalia]]  I heard a Hairy Woodpecker with a queer note.  It did not give the clear [[underlined]] skik [[/underlined]] but a flatter note with an n sound in it or else one entirely unlike it.  It seemed to give it as often as one with a perfect voice.  Soon after I heard another and the contrast was very marked.  Both were feeding busily.
